Turtle Cove is situated on complex terrain beside the lake near the village of Aguacate 10-15 minutes from Nuevo Arenal. The developer, a North American who has done at least one other development in Costa Rica, has been working several years to get Turtle Cove going and has made surprising progress recently. A 2BR 2BA model home has been completely and is for sale. A larger model of two stories is under construction. The entrance gate and guardhouse as well as a floating dock have been in place for a couple of years, and boats slips as well as dry storage are available. A number of the lots (there are over 40 lots) have been sold and several buyers have completed homes. There are plans to build a clubhouse with pool and restaurant and a boutique hotel. The lowest of the lots has been made a boat storage area with a marina office. More photos of the recently completed model home are available here. The developer offers financing with 20% down, low interest small payments for 2 years and then a balloon payment. These terms are negotiable.

Our photos of the recently completed model home were taken as a rainstorm passed. Ordinarily the home has fine views of the cove, the lake, and the opposing hills.

The model home is completely furnished and has all appliances, including a washer and dryer.
